Men's Barefoot Leather Loafer — Russet Antique

Built for the days that do not announce themselves: work, errands, a long walk home.

This one is Russet — a warm reddish brown with visible depth in the grain. Antique-finished calfskin, hand-burnished at the toe and heel so the colour sits deeper at the edges than across the vamp.

It sits close to the foot without gripping, so the toes stay free to splay.

• Drop — zero, heel to toe
• Toe box — anatomically wide, no taper at the little toe
• Outsole — 5–8 mm recycled buffalo leather, hot-pressed traction pattern. Grip without rubber, so grounding conductivity stays unbroken
• Grounding — copper rivet set at the K1 acupressure point
• Insole — 1 mm buffalo leather
• Lining — calfskin, not lambskin
• Construction — hand-cut and hand-stitched, iconic perimeter stitch
• Sizes — US men's 7–16.5, half sizes throughout

Made to order in Gaziantep, in a workshop that has been cutting leather since 1950.
